ASFAR VP in Teen People
ASFAR Vice-President Justin Mallone is in the August issue of Teen People, on Page 52, or, since the pages in that section are not numbered, just go to the 8th page after the "NOA" perfume insert. The article outlines the essence of ASFAR's positions, and is very flattering and upbeat on the future prospects of youth rights. The piece has already brought in quite a few new members.

 Lets Do it Now

   My name is Stephanie Green. I am 17 years old and live in Tucson, Arizona.  Several months ago I started an organization here to give 16 and 17 year olds the right to vote. We are called Generation Now.  Two of my legislators are writing a bill for us right now. I have been on several staple radio stations here, been in the newspaper, and have been on one 50-minute TV program to date.

  Part of our plan includes a current events class focusing on campaign information to be required of all high school students. We believe this will be a tool of socialization to encourage students to vote. We have a website that has not been updated in a while, but that you can check out: www.GenerationNow2000.com .  It's not that great since we have virtually no funding.  I just found out about you through a web search and just wanted to let you know I am  working on this effort in Arizona.  Let's keep each other updated. Thanks, Stephanie
